    Teach Back: Helping You Understand


    The Teach Back Method helps you understand the information we are giving you. The idea is simple. After talking with the staff, tell them in your own words what you were just told. This helps to make sure the staff has covered each thing clearly. It also helps to explain things that may have been a bit confusing. Before going home, make sure you are able to do these: ‚  
    • I can tell you about my condition.
    • I can tell you ways to help prevent this infection.
    • I can tell you what I will do if I have an itchy red rash, vaginal discharge, or pain in my mouth or throat.
